Walk 172. Stargazing

Took the kids to a short lecture ("Black Holes, Pulsars, Magnetars, and Other Weird Objects in the Universe") at the Theodor Jacobsen Observatory at UW. Looked in different sized telescopes set up around the observatory, then went up in the dome to take a look at the moon through the 120-year old, 6-inch refracting telescope. It was pretty great! But we got home late. I went for a walk in the dark. 1.75 miles.
